BOERNE SALES UP FOR JUNE, SLIGHTLY DOWN FOR JULY

Julie Kathryn Quest-Brooks — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 23:24:27 +0000

Boerne Real Estate Sales are up for the Summer so far. Total Sales for June & July were $29.9 million as compared with $25.7 last year during the same period.

The number of total sales for June & July was up by 7; however, days on market increased from 138 to 200 from July, 2008 to July, 2009 reflecting increased inventories. Pending sales as of August 3, 2009, total just over $11.2 million.

We watch the Boerne market daily. If you have something specific that you are interested, we’d love to help you find what you are looking for.

Recently, we were contacted by a gentlemen. He had previously been in contact with a listing agent on a property, tried to make an offer, but did not get the property as there were competing bids. The moral of the story (as he found out) is that Buyers need their own representation. It eliminates conflicts of interest and it provides you, the buyer, with the best market information possible.

Our goal is to EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS BY GIVING YOU ABOVE & BEYOND SERVICE.

We’d love to visit with you. Call us at 830-995-2511.
